Industries are being disrupted and totally reinvented by digital transformation. Digital technology rapidly and radically transforms how capital is raised, how new products are created, how sellers engage with customers, and, social media accelerates and amplifies all of those changes. Businesses and other large organizations must come up with good ideas more rapidly than ever before, make better decisions in hours rather than weeks, find and hire world-class talent more quickly, spot emerging trends and opportunities before competitors do, and move as fast as their customers move.

In this white paper, we will first review why digital changes everything, and why digital transformation is at the center of the CIO’s agenda, along with other priorities including security, cloud services, Big Data and cost control. We will then consider how MySQL, the world’s most popular open source database, can help executives drive digital transformation, addressing their priorities and helping them to achieve their goals.
